Bra hotell men bestill frokost ved booking, dyrt å etterbestille…
Pros:

Bra rom, men ungene , og jeg synes det var kaldt vann i bassenget, så det ble nedtur. Ibalgte hotellet pga basseng, selv om det var utenfor sentrum. Ok frokost

Cons:

Måtte betale frokost for barna, fordi det ikke var forhåndsbestilt. Bestilte ved ankomst, men det hjalp ikke. Pris 2x 75 for 8 og 11 åring, +30 pr voksen . Barn som hadde gått gratis om det ble bestilt ved booking, bør faktisk endres mener jeg…
Reklamerer med billading, men de kunne ikke bistår, var privat leverandør. Kunne ikke stå over natten, måtte flytte bil når lading var ferdig på natten…. Det gjorde at vi måtte led et annet sted… misvisende å reklamere med ladning….

Pros:

Trevlig personal.

Cons:

Fann strumpor som inte var våra under sängen, vilket betyder att det är dåligt städat.
Fick bara en ursäkt, men inte dåligt så....

Pros:

Fin beliggenhet langs elven.
Mulig å gå på byen, ca 1,5 km å gå

Cons:

Rommene var litt liten men ok interiør.
En litt gammel bygning, trenger en del oppussing for å få høyere score

Inget wow boende
Pros:

Sängen var bra.

Cons:

Maten på restaurangen var inte bra. I övrigt så kändes hotellet ganska slitet. Borde varit billigare sett till det.

Pros:

Kul med quiz för barnen. God frukost.

Cons:

Det är för kallt i rummet där poolen är vilket ger en inte så trevlig upplevelse av badet. Vi hade rum ut mot vägen och trafiken hördes mycket in.
